"This Lower Queen Anne Mexican restaurant receives shockingly little recognition considering the breadth and consistent quality of its menu. The red pozole here is deeply satisfying with big, juicy, tender pieces of pork, and the green ceviche is balanced and generously portioned. Go on a weekday lunch and you’ll have the restaurant almost all to yourself." - Charlie Lahud-Zahner
"This Mexican restaurant in one of the most lively stretches of Uptown serves some of the best under-the-radar Mexican food in the central Seattle area at surprisingly affordable prices. The ceviche is a generous pile of shrimp and vegetables in a balanced marinade, and the stews, like the pozole, are satisfying and filling." - Meg van Huygen

"Diabla Shrimp Torta “My summer strategy has been to eat as many tortas as possible (this city has some great ones) and to enjoy a picnic in one of Seattle’s parks. I was recently able to do both by picking up a ‘Diabla Shrimp Torta’ and taking it to eat in Gas Works Park. Besides spilling the delicious spicy shrimp juice all over my shorts and being made fun of by some neighboring picnickers for taking a picture of my food, I had an excellent time.” - Carlo Mantuano, Staff Editor" - julia chen 1, carlo mantuano, aimee rizzo
